This issue is definitely not an Eclipse one, but an Ubuntu one. Ubuntu 
hardcoded an exception for Eclipse menu in there menu manager.
This exception can be removed on the Ubuntu side by tweak linked earlier by 
Luis Fernando:

It's working correctly as far as I've used Eclipse for the last few days.

Also note that Ubuntu menu are used for other RCP applications that are
not titled "Eclipse".

For further better integration of Eclipse into Ubuntu, follow this
Ubuntu ticket: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appmenu-
gtk/+bug/865389 and help it to get merged into Ubuntu.

If some error specific to Eclipse happen in Ubuntu after this ticket is
fixed, or with already existing other RCP applications, then please open
other tickets specific to these issues.

Title:
  Eclipse menu bar does not appear in eclipse or the global menu

Status in Eclipse:
  Unknown
Status in “eclipse” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: eclipse

  When running Eclipse the global menu just has a File > Close command
  and the menu bar doesn't appear in Eclipse, thus no menu bar options
  at all are exposed for Eclipse.
